You're Invited

 

I'm so pleased to announce this fabulous Art Tour that is just weeks away.  It's the first tour in my new studio location in New Glarus, WI.  The hours are 10-5 pm daily June 4-6 with 29 artists across 19 locations.  It's a rare chance to see working artists with a variety of media including pottery, jewelry, oil painting, sculpture and more.  Go to www.mhaaa.org for a complete map and details about the event.  

Here's what to expect if you visit me on the tour.  Parking is easy at my home.  The garage will be converted into a gallery space with LOTS of paintings.  I'll be doing an ongoing demo so you can see my work in progress.  Then just a few steps inside the side door you can see my studio space - where I will have even more paintings on display!  I've always worked in tiny spaces, so rather than dwell on the limitations of a small space, I'll focus on the positives.  In this new studio I have an amazing view of these horses -- our neighbors.  And yes, you will see more horse paintings in my near future.

My new studio also has a door and nice windows.  Two more positives!  I've always had a studio inside my home, with a 20 foot walk to the kitchen, bathroom, and being a Mom all these years.  This studio is situated so maybe down the road we might be able to bump out a wall for a little extra space.  And for those who know me, I also spend a fair amount of time with my easel outside doing plein air painting.  

If you visit New Glarus, we have a charming downtown with great shops and restaurants.  A beautiful bike trail and a winery just minutes from our doorstep.  It's a view you don't want to miss.  The world-famous brewery is not open until the fall, but you can always pick up beer at the local grocery store.  

I have travelled many of these roads that will lead you to the other studios on the tour.  You will not be disappointed with the artistic treasures and beauty around each and every corner.  Hope to see you June 4-6!
